Valerie Zeko

Valerie Zeko, now 57, battled treatment-resistant depression for 28 years, feeling trapped in a fog that clouded her happiness and motivation. After trying numerous antidepressants with limited success, she participated in a clinical trial for SAINT (Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy) at Stanford University. This innovative treatment, which uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain, significantly improved her quality of life, allowing her to enjoy activities that had previously been overshadowed by her depression.
